While on board ship returning to USA after their tour of duty in Korea, this souvenir was given to my dad and other Marines in 1951.

The experienced hospice RN thought he would die during the night of the 22nd. My dad had been calling out for my mom the week before he died, "Doris...Doris." I think he waited for her to come get him, I really do. It's too much of a coincidence to not be #DivineIntervention.
